Jaye Mueller
(She/Her/Hers)
Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW)
I love animals, the mountains, and the ocean. I believe beginning with a new client is an exciting, humbling journey. It's as if I'm reading a new book.
If you are reading this information, welcome! I have been in a variety of practice settings for 46 years from public welfare agencies, outpatient mental health centers, inpatient psychiatric hospitals, substance abuse treatment centers, and private practice. I've enjoyed all of my employment experiences often seeking new knowledge in order to obtain new personal growth. I offer all of my experience, strength, and hope to my clients. I do not ask anything of my clients that I haven't done myself. I understand that meeting a new therapist and beginning the therapeutic process can be frightening in developing that trust necessary to share confidential information. It takes time to develop a therapeutic relationship necessary to share the type of information needed to delve into your past, present, hopes, and fears. I offer to people safety, a place of trust, and security. It is an honor to work with people assisting each one in developing goals to achieve your truest potential. Beginning therapy and remaining with the process requires courage and strength. It is such an overall joyful process.
